I've been an artist and filmmaker for over 30 years. Making and talking about pottery is central to my life. My work is in galleries at home and abroad, and I'm profiled in a recent book about Contemporary British Ceramics. My work focuses on characterful wood-fired pieces that are functional and sculptural. I'm excited to share my passion with you.

We had the most lovely morning. Tim was a great teacher and helped us create some unique pieces of art that we can't wait to display in our house. Everything about the experience was amazing, and we definitely hope to return one day! Thank you Tim! ☺️

me and my wife had the most amazing time with Tim, he was very knowledgeable and although we ended up getting there a little late he still made time for us to be able to do 3 pottery pieces each.
We would highly recommend.

Myself and my partner first time behind a pottery wheel and are very happy with the outcome of the 3 items.
Can’t wait to pick them up in a months time.

A wonderful experience with a very talented, knowledgeable and friendly host, Tim. Couldn’t recommend it more. You get to utilise the whole time creating and come out with very beautiful and practical pieces to collect a few weeks after the class has finished.

Tim was a patient and fantastic teacher. Everything was explained, demonstrated and guidance given throughout. He's clearly very experienced and creative and we had a wonderful time. Highly recommended.
